Anime Studio Debut 9

This program that i purchased was not what i expected because i had higher hopes for it than this. I still think that it is ok for beginners in the animation field.

Anime Studio Debut 9 is by far one of the least user-friendly programs I have ever used. Even very simple actions take an excessive amount of clicks through menus to get done. For example, lets take an incredibly simple function like drawing a vector-based circle. You draw your circle and you want to modify the fill and stroke. Sorry, but you cant, those options are greyed out. Even though the circle is already selected because you just drew the darn thing you have to first click on the Select Shape tool, click the shape, THEN you can change properties of the circle. WHY?! I just drew it, let me change its attributes right there and then! Another massive gripe I have with Debut is that your project dimensions are limited to 788x768! This is a huge limitation that basically cripples the software for me. ASD9 has some cool features, like bone-rigging, that work really well, but is rendered unusable due to the frustrating and unintuitive user interface. Fortunately the software is cheap enough that trying it out isnt going to break the bank.

Unable to provide detail evaluation as I am a beginning user with a large learning curve ahead. Willing to provide more in the future.

It worked better than expected. I would definitely recommend this product to those who needed. If I had to buy is again, I would!

I only paid 8 bucks and im still disappointed.

Seems good so far. My disk came a little scuffed, but installed just fine. Ive been busy so I havent really got to use it much. But its totally work the 6 something paid.

Very hard to use if you dont have experience using this programs,

Learned so much already, so easy to use. Works great with drawing pad. Additional tutorials lifesaving.

Love it. Wish I had more time to actually learn its full potential.

Love it, its a great beginning cartoon tool for me.
